AFAIU this is supposed to be a no change in behavior patch that lays the
groundwork.

I don't quite understand the idea behind this. The only place
vfio_ap_matrix_init() is used, is in create right after the whole
matrix_mdev got allocated with kzalloc.

A note on the thread safety of the access to matrix_mdev->matrix. I
guess the idea is, that this is still safe because we did
vfio_ap_mdev_set_kvm() and that is supposed to inhibit changes the
matrix.

There are two things that bother me with this:
1) the assign operations don't check matrix_mdev->kvm under the lock
2) with dynamic, this is supposed to change (So I have to be careful
about it when reviewing the following patches. A sneak-peek at the end
result makes me worried).

What is the idea behind this? From the above, it looks like we are going
to overwrite matrix_mdev->shadow_apcb with matrix_mdev->matrix before
the next commit anyway.

I suppose this is probably about no guest unolies no resources passed
through at the moment. If that is the case maybe we can document it
below.
